(Note for Jacket--see Marketing File-so/10/26]The vast, politically
turbulent region encompassing the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf,
forty-two littoral states, and one third of the world's population
is one of the most potentially explosive theaters of superpower
rivalry. In this study, three American and three Indian authors,
reflecting different perspectives and areas of expertise, examine
the principal factors that have led to the escalation of superpower
tensions in the region: the war in Afghanistan, and its spillover
into the Afghanistan-Pakistani borderlands; the Indo-Pakistani
nuclear arms race; ethnic tensions in Sri Lanka; the Iran-Iraq war;
Islamic fundamentalism; and the rapidly growing military presence
of the superpowers in the area. Considering how India's emergence
as a military power is influencing superpower and indigenous
tensions in the region, the contributors compare Indian, American,
and Soviet interests, and offer solutions for current
Indian-American disagreements.
